It's nice. Upcoming pages are even better, imo.

Perfect. Goku now has a sparring partner. So now is the time to train for an additional six day under the intense gravity for a trip back to Earth, where they could use the Room of Spirit and Time for two days. After pushing their bodies their limit, they will be as prepared as can be for this enemy Kaio says they have no chance of beating. That's what they're gonna do, right? Right? Ah, who am I kidding? They're probably going straight to Freeza.

That would have been clever :lol:. Though, even in the original manga they had various chances to use ROSAT before the androids kicked their ass and they never did.

You know, Goku seems to be really acting out of character here, he's just acting so odd right now. It's unnerving

Either A) Because Vegetto is such a big unstable asshole, Goku is made to be more of an insensitive jerk so there would be less complaining, or B) Salagir is taking notes from TFS.

it's most likely option C) The ruining influence of universe 16 has already touched Goku from universe 8 making him poorly written, and out of character

Do you have early access to pages before they're publicly released?

Honestly the only part that bothers me is Goku saying "He must pay for his crimes". It doesn't feel normal for him to say that, at least in my opinion.
I'm back!

Lurking around here since 2014. Just an old fan who regained his passion for Dragon Ball since then.

Yes, I'm one of the portuguese translators.

I think it's due to the writing and the art style. It's probably not intentional.

That's what put me off, too. But I feel like it works for Namek arc Goku. He had a big speech about making Freeza pay when he faced him.

I agree that "He must pay for his crimes" is unusually articulate for Goku. There are a number of lines like that peppered throughout that I wonder if it's a translation quirk. But the overall tenor of Goku's reaction is spot on, I think. It is a bit of a let down to have skipped over the initial emotional outburst that most certainly would have happened upon finding Gohan, Krillin, and Bulma. But from what we did see there's nothing going on here that is outside the standards of Dragon Ball.

Yeah, we're just having a fun time bashing and nit picking it. Because I'm still baffled on how Krillin's, Gohan's, Bulma's, the dragon radar and the slightly crakced dragon balls are still there. That literally made no sense

The problem is that the topic then becomes 90% bashing, as it has mostly been for a while, which I doubt is actually fun to read and be on.

Bashing, is more fun to do. We also have to balance out all the praise this is getting over at Dragon Ball Multiverse.

Bashing is basically someone getting off on attacking something. That's not what actual criticism is about and it's not what a thread is supposed to be about.

It might be fun to do, but when the topic becomes a pit of negativity because the great majority of it is people bashing, then it's not good for anyone.

This is especially true when it's regarding amateur work. It's one thing to bash official products done by professionals if we find inexcusable problems with them because they are supposed to be professional work. Another, completely different, thing is to do it regarding amateur work.

And even then we aren't really bashing the work, we're not going this sucks, or this special sucks, or anything like that. We're just giving our opinions.

Even then it's not entirely negative, we're just letting our thoughts take over and discussing this special. We don't actually hate this special and we arent bashing it. I'd say it's nitpicking it.

Oh for the love of god. I don't give a damn if this is an amateur work. So your;re saying that we're not allowed to criticize Dragon Ball Multiverse, or nitpick it, or occasionally bash it when we're angry? But we're allowed to if it's a professional work? So you're right then we arent allowed to bash, criticize and nitpick the Bra scene as it's an 'amateur' work. Look I judge things on the story. So far.... Eh, not looking good so far

Nitpicking is going out of our way to find things that allows us to criticize or badmouth something. Doing that consistently is not bashing?

You can do whatever you want, I'm not the police. However, taking you for an example, I don't see how it makes sense to look at a professional work done by professional artists that certain people had to pay for, like Super is, and be positive about its quality simply because the professionals working on it didn't have very good conditions, and then look at an amateur work done by amateurs in their free time and nitpick it. To me, that doesn't make sense at all.

More importantly, even if I thought it made sense, I wouldn't think it's good to have a topic that is mostly just that.
